Hi cmakers,
I decided to start a new project using cmake. While I got a lot of
things going quickly, some things are taking me to despair. The current
issue has a couple of web hits, but either I misunderstand something
critical or cmake 2.6 (as of current Debian Lenny) is broken:
--8<-------CMakeLists.txt------------
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 2.6)
project(test)
add_custom_command(
OUTPUT bla.txt
COMMAND touch bla.txt
)
add_custom_target(bla DEPENDS bla.txt)
--8<-------CMakeLists.txt------------
Any ideas what is going wrong here?
Yes. replace bla.txt everywhere by ${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/bla.txt, and
all will be well. I have just checked that works, and also verified the
problem you found if you use bla.txt instead.
It's possible you might be able to also solve the problem using
WORKING_DIRECTORY, but I am not sure about that, and I know
${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/bla.txt (i.e., being specific about the
path) always does work.
